The Career Technical Education Incentive Grant (CTEIG) program is a significant initiative aimed at bolstering career technical education (CTE) programs in California. This page serves as a central hub for resources and information pertaining to the CTEIG Request for Applications (RFA) for the fiscal year 2024-25.
Key CTEIG Resources for 2024-25
For the current application cycle, the CTEIG Request for Applications (RFA) 2024-25 document is your primary guide. You can access it directly here: CTEIG RFA Fiscal Year 2024-25 Round B. Be sure to also review Errata 1 for any updates or clarifications to the original RFA.
Understanding preliminary allocations and funding results is crucial for applicants. While specific links for 2024-25 preliminary allocations and funding results are typically updated during the application cycle, keep an eye on the main CTEIG page for these announcements.
CTE Data Collection and Reporting
Accurate data collection is fundamental to the CTEIG program. The CTE Data Collection page provides essential resources, including links to the Data Survey, the CTE Data Collection Letter, and webinar series designed to guide you through the survey completion process. Proper data submission ensures accountability and helps demonstrate the impact of CTE programs.
